Seriously…. grow up everybody. The accident was bad enough, but it’s not like joking about BP’s efforts cleaning it up is gonna make it any better. Save your sarcastic remarks and offer solutions instead of taunts.

You’re right. What I do here is not necessarily going to help with the damage that has been done. But we are calling attention to a poorly handled situation that I’m sure BP would love to sweep under the rug. Don’t forget the eleven people that lost their lives during the explosion of the rig in the first place. Lives that could potentially have been saved, had BP actually spent the money for blast resistant shelters. Which they deemed not worth it. And this post suggests that the booming they are attempting to do is being done half-assed, and not going to do a damn thing. At least posting these to get people’s attention is better than doing nothing, with my finger up my ass.

Actually, as a public relations professional I can tell you that this is exactly what is needed to make it better.
PR pressure like this hurts BP’s stock price, and that’s what corporate execs care about most. Trust me, they’re watching this space and BPGlobalPR closely, and hating it. They really want out of the spotlight right now, so keeping it on them until they fix the problem is effective.

This is Amazing. I’m looking at it with friends on a sort of sunny day in Portland Oregon. Great work!

Really well done.
Sometimes mockery is an important form of argument. I really like how you’ve turned the BP logo into such a striking, outward-flowing oil slick.

Are these actual tweets by BP or are you making it up? I searched for them, couldn’t find the source.

[...] Auf Twitter schreibt seit kuz nach dem Beginn der Katastrophe der Account @bpglobalpr. Das ist nicht der offizielle BP-Account, sondern ein erfolgreicher Fake mit aktuell 125000 Followern. BP ist momentan wohl machtlos dagegen. In einem dazu gehörigen Shop kann man T-Shirts erwerben. Hinter dem Account steckt eine Person namens Leroy Stick und der erklärt hier, was seine Motivation ist. Wiederum Remixe seiner Tweets und Bildern der Öl-Katastrophe finden sich hier in Form von neuen BP-Werbeplakaten. [...]
